Police credited the wide publication of a bank security camera photo of the robber for producing numerous tips that led them to Trusello,

Podgers said Falls police entered the home first “to see if he looked anything remotely like the picture.” Podgers said that Trusello did resemble the photo, so the Falls officers told him that Lockport police were interested in talking to him.

“He sat there and waited for us,” Podgers said.

The money stolen in the robbery was not recovered, Podgers said. The bank has not yet completed an audit to determine how much was taken.

The robber used a note to a teller to obtain a stack of currency, the surveillance photos show. He did not display a weapon.
